The Hero Disciple Is Back - Chapter 109
108. It’s bound to flow eventually
Archangel Lyella knew.
Their future cannot be beautiful. That is why the Celestials chose the past over the present and the future. Just as no matter how painful the past is, it becomes a memory as time passes… . The past can be decorated and packaged in any way.
Even though I knew that it was an utterly futile and empty thing to do… I pretended not to know… I pretended not to know… I deceived myself over and over again, wrapping up and decorating the past and covering it up, and I ended up hanging everything on the past and becoming tied to it. It literally stagnated. And anything that stagnates, whether it be water or anything else, is bound to rot.
‘It stagnates and rots. That was us.’
Unable to bear the present, unable to move forward, so they chose the past… . In the end, it was no different from stagnant water. In the end, it rotted and decayed until it completely lost its form as water… . Beings that had stagnated and rotted like that… . Archangel Lyella never knew that that was who they were. She did not know, but… . Still, it was more peaceful that way, so they did it that way.
Like a mirage in the desert that can never be reached… . Chasing only a mirage and dying in the desert heat… . That was what they were like… . Archangel Lyella was not unaware of this.
“… So I guess I have to accept this ending as well.”
【Kuguguu …
The reason I am less shocked when I see with my own eyes the heavens that were always beautiful and splendid collapsing into darkness is probably because of that.
It’s not that I didn’t know that a being who lived only looking at the past, abandoning the present and the future, would not have a good ending… … It’s not that I didn’t know that in the end, I would meet the worst ending.
“I guess I wasn’t qualified to begin with.”
From the moment you turn away from reality, abandon the future, and choose to dwell only in the past
They never had the qualifications to have a proper future in the first place.
For someone who has turned away from reality and abandoned the future to hope for a brighter tomorrow is, in the literal sense, shameless.
“Hahahahaha, we who call ourselves messengers of God… . Does that mean we have continued to do such shameless things up until today… ?”
How can one not laugh?
What can they do but laugh when they are faced with the fact that they, who were so arrogant, were actually nothing more than the most worthless scarecrows? Shouldn’t they at least laugh? If it’s meaningless anyway, shouldn’t they at least try to cover it up by laughing?
“… Still, at the very end, it was able to have some ‘meaning’… so I guess that’s a blessing.”
Archangel Lirell summoned the golden spear and held it. In the distant past, the boy who was still a young angel had looked with admiration at the adult angels training with the golden spear. Every time, he thought, I want to become an adult like that. I want to become a strong warrior who can match that proud back.
That’s why I held the spear and swung it and swung it until I died.
The hands that were once full of calluses and glory have now largely disappeared and become incredibly soft. It’s as if the hands are saying, ‘You have not lived a glorious life at all.’
“My whole body is frozen.”
“That’s why I told you to exercise.”
“And you? Can you really swing a spear with those thin arms?”
“Hmph! I’m confident I can swing it better than you, so don’t worry about it.”
“Elders, don’t push yourself too hard and come back. We, the younger ones, will do better.”
“Shut up! We’re still in full swing! Aren’t we?”
“Yes! Even when you were suckling, we swung spears.”
Except for the youngest of the Celestials, Silphid and Elena, all of them were long-lived beyond imagination, and they were full of energy and vitality, as if they had returned to their youth. Their voices were so full of life that it seemed as if they had been rotting away. It was as if the hands of a clock that had stopped for a long time had started moving again.
‘Maybe that’s right.’
These things that had been forcibly blocked and stagnant and had been rotting away were finally opening up and trying to flow even more strongly.
“I guess what must flow will flow in the end.”
Archangel Lyella concluded as if she had just realized that obvious fact.
“Archangel”
“… … .”
“Please… finish it.”
“… Okay.”
finish
From noble mtl dot com
Yeah, this is where we end.
In the end, the ending was unavoidable.
‘But… it’s not the worst ending.’
Now, look.
Aren’t all the celestials who had been dead-eyed until just a moment ago all glaring? None of them had dead-eyed eyes anymore. Even though they knew that what awaited them was the end, they were all ready and burning.
Archangel Lyella captured each and every one of those passionate gazes.
“Today we die.”
The Archangel declared that their fate was set and could never be changed. But no one was intimidated by it.
“But that is not a sad thing. Rather, it is a happy thing. Isn’t it? Don’t we know better than anyone else that it is a painful thing to just exist without meaning anymore?”
Living while somehow holding on to the past and looking at the mirage… wasn’t such a pleasant thing. It wasn’t a pleasant thing. On the contrary, it was exhausting and exhausting. Just existing like that, looking at the mirage without any meaning or value, was nothing but a futile and empty thing.
“Tighten your chin and raise the spear.”
All the celestials raised their spears.
Hands that have lost a lot of calluses because they haven’t held a window for a long time
But her eyes were burning brightly and with more energy than ever.
“Today we die. I say it again. Today we die. But it is not a sad thing. With our deaths, the world will have a new beginning. Our deaths will be the fertilizer that allows new shoots to sprout. Just as the great gods did, we too will be the fertilizer for new beginnings. Lift up your heads, proud warriors of the sky. We die today, but tomorrow without us will surely be brighter than ever. There is no reason to be sad!”
Archangel Lyella raised her spear high and shouted.
“La Pardier!!!”
He shouted out loud in an ancient language that is no longer used.
The meaning is ‘to the side of God’
““La Pardier!!!!””
““La Pardier!!!!””
““La Pardier!!!!””
All the celestials shouted with all their might.
Someone screamed
As if someone was pulling it up
Someone’s throat is sore
That’s how they decorated their end.
♧♧♧
The Dark King, born of darkness, knows only darkness… .
The first and last creation that the Demon King created by his own will was the Dark King. Therefore, the Dark King’s existence proved that the Demon King had reached the realm of a god, while also showing the Demon King’s limitations. Although he had proven that he had reached the realm of a god by performing the work of creation, what he had created in that way was darkness, and the Dark King was nothing but darkness… He may have reached the realm of a god, but that did not allow him to escape the essence of the Demon King.
That is why the Demon King did not create the Dark King last. By creating the Dark King, he not only proved that he had reached the realm of a god, but also that his own nature could not change.
therefore
The existence of the Dark King
It could be said to be a tragedy for the Demon King. That is why the Demon King thoroughly treated and dealt with the Dark King as a weapon. For him, the birth of the Dark King ultimately meant that his own fate could not be changed. It was literally a confirmed death. In the end, he was destroyed, destroyed, and destroyed again… The Demon King had no choice but to painfully realize through the Dark King that there was no other way.
【Kuguu …
But the Dark King cannot recognize that fact. The Dark King cannot recognize at all that his very existence is a misfortune and despair to his parents. After all, he is a being that is darkness and can only be darkness… Even feeling sadness was impossible for the Dark King.
Just destroying it with darkness, absorbing it, and repeating only that… Although he was clearly created as a living being, in the end he became nothing more than a weapon.
【Woo …
The beautiful heavens were destroyed and absorbed into darkness in an instant, but the Dark King was unable to feel any sensation or emotion.
Kwaaang!!!
At that moment, a golden spear split the darkness of the Dark King.
“Look! I’m not that rusty yet!”
Some of it was destroyed.
However, the Dark King immediately regenerated as if he had been destroyed. No, it was not enough to even call it regeneration. It was so clean that it was as if the fact that he had been hit had never happened.
“What?!”
“Look at that! The old man’s back is completely empty! How can you hit him with that?! If you’re going to hit him, put all your strength into his back!”
Kwaaang!!!
“Look! It has to be this bad to be a hit… Why is it okay?”
“Run!”
The celestials rushed toward the darkness all at once. However, just as light cannot disappear in this world, darkness cannot disappear. The darkness of the Dark King hesitated for a moment at the light of the celestials, but it was literally only a momentary pause.
Their attacks are not working.
But from that side, they continue to launch powerful attacks.
The ending was literally decided from the beginning. It was a situation that could only be seen that way.
“Eurya ryaryara!!!!!!!!!”
“You guys! Can’t you put more strength into your waists?!!!”
But the spirit of the Celestials did not waver at all. No, it was burning even more. It was as if their plan was not affected by this level of difficulty.
